Tori Spelling is promoting her third memoir, the idiotically named uncharted terriTORI. Part of that involves telling stories to the press that will get her the maximum amount of press coverage. Tori has been candid about her marriage problems and the emotional distance she’s feeling from her husband, Dean, as well as the fact that she’s afraid that Dean, who cheated on his wife with her, is going to cheat on her. (Tori was also cheating on her then-husband when she hooked up with Dean.) She’s also talked about her very low weight and tiny frame, blaming it on health problems and attempting to shame us for even noticing when she often brings up the topic herself.
Now Tori is telling a bizarre story about how she consulted a medium trying to contact her departed dad, but was allegedly contacted by the spirit of an actress from one of his hit television shows. Farrah Fawcett came through briefly from the other side, according to Tori, and gave her detailed information to pass on to her loved ones. Although she was disappointed that she couldn’t talk to her dad, Tori dutifully wrote all of “Farrah’s” messages down and sent a letter with the information to Fawcett’s ex, Ryan O’Neal. It sounds like the medium was much more familiar with Farrah’s story than with Tori’s dad, Aaron.
It’s almost been a year since Farrah Fawcett died on the morning of June 25, 2009, after a lengthy battle with cancer, and in a new interview, her former neighbor, Tori Spelling, told Access Hollywood that the blonde bombshell visited her from beyond during a psychic reading.
“I was talking to a medium,” Tori told Access Hollywood in an interview to promote her third memoir, “uncharted terriTORI,” which hit bookstores on Tuesday. “I was hoping my dad [‘Charlie’s’ Angels’ producer Aaron Spelling] would come through.”
Instead of hearing from her father, while sitting down with medium and talk show host John Edward, it was the former “Angel” Tori heard from.
“Farrah Fawcett came through in my reading loud and clear,” Tori continued. “It was really awkward for him as well. He’s like, ‘I have never had this happen.’”
Tori explained to Access that she knew Farrah for years – first through her dad and the actress’ work on “Charlie’s Angels,” then because they were neighbors, and also because the blonde bombshell appeared on Tori’s former VH1 show, “So NoTorious,” but she wasn’t entirely prepared for her psychic visit from the star.
“She wanted me to give a message to her family about how she was doing and what was going on and I’m like, ‘Great! She really picked the wrong person,’” Tori laughed.
“Non-confrontational me, what am I gonna do?” Tori continued. “So I’m sitting on that information — I’m happy to say it’s not in the book because it happened afterwards.”
However, Tori eventually did make a move and got in touch with Farrah’s loved ones.
“I actually wrote a letter to Ryan O’Neal and gave it to him so I was like, he’s either going to think I’m completely crazy or he’s going to say, ‘Wow! Some of this makes sense,’ because she gave very specific details of things to tell them,” she explained.
Tori also reached out to Farrah’s son, Redmond O’Neal, through his father.
“I did and I included that in the note to Ryan saying, ‘Please pass this on to Redmond… She really wanted him to know these things,’” Tori explained. “I haven’t heard from Ryan so I don’t know, you know, I’m hoping you know he understood what I was trying to say and doesn’t think I’m some loony.”

I have friends who believe in spirit contact, and I’m respectful of it, but I’m a skeptic and find it all pretty hokey. You know that Tori just wanted to ask her dad where he keeps the treasure in that ginormous mansion Tori’s mom is trying to unload. Maybe if Tori had inherited a load of cash instead of the less than $1 million she received we wouldn’t be hearing from her so often. She’s got to hustle for her money, and that involves airing her personal problems on television, complaining about her weight, and visiting mediums to get material to talk about.

ugh.
This story is cute. Tori’s face? Not so much.
I take this to mean that her dad is in no mood to talk with her.
OK next she’s going to say that Big Foot read her latest book and liked it! Anything for attention including starving her poor body!
love those shoes!
That’s so weird because Farrah spoke to me through a medium, too! She told me to tell Tori Spelling to stfu….and eat a sandwich for pity’s sake.
LOL Elizabeth!
Considering she and her mother both used their “feud” to publicize their previous books, can’t say I’m surprised.
That Edwards guy seems like such a fraud, and I bet she forked over a lot of $ to see him. Idiot.
Why doesn’t she ever stand like a normal person instead of trying to contort her body into some weird question mark looking shape???
Tori seems like a nice person despite having Candy Spelling a a mother.
right. & she’s not anorexic either.
lol Eliz. 🙂
I don’t know how she can stay sane while exposing herself/family issues to the whole world. Honestly, I think she must be a very strong person deep down.
I won’t say anything bad about Tori. I feel bad for her, because of that bitch mother of hers.
When a person dies, he generally leaves everything to his spouse. The kids inherit when BOTH parents die. Tori can expect that when Candy dies, Liam and Stella will be set for life.
I just can’t. I wish her parents had named her something else so we weren’t subjected to all these stupid titles involving her name. One can only hope she runs out of bastardisations of “tori” soon.
What an idiot. I don’t have much respect for so-called psychics or mediums (since I think they’re all a bunch of liars) but if they have to prey on someone, I guess it’s best they take money from fools like Tori.
why does tori insist on wearing yellow? it does her no favor.
yeah, Farrah was paging her urgently with the number of her plastic surgeon to get that mess that is her face and crater in her chest fixed. Farrah is an angel!
I don’t get why people would actually want to buy all those sTORIes.
I’d rather have a suspense thriller or some great fiction, thanks.
i’ma skeptic too!
Even if this medium connection really took place, why talk about it in the media? And make it sound like a publicity tactic. It should be kept private. Tori , canary yellow is a tough color hon, don’t try it again. Tori is a good girl for Hollywood standards.
She is just the worst kind of person…as ugly on the outside as she is on the inside.
What struck me most was how incredibly large and weighty that bangle looks on her arm…she is looking very very thin…
1 word: Frightening!
I’m a Farrah fan and this is the second time somebody has claimed to make contact with her through a psychic medium. The first was late last year when her “friend” Alana Stewart claimed to make contact with her through another “psychic medium”, James Van Praagh. Regardless of whether one believes contact can be made with the departed, both of these “mediums” have had their credibility called into question. And remember, BOTH Ms. Spelling and Ms. Stewart are trying to sell their books. Ms. Stewart has been criticized, justifiably, of using her “friendship” with Farrah to make money; her career has not been nearly as noteworthy as Farrah’s. And Ms. Spelling’s main asset is her father’s name.
Why can’t the dead just be left to rest in peace without being pumped for messages?
But at least it wasn’t Elvis this time passing on messages 🙂
